Description

They called her Auld Nally - a moneylender in one of Glasgow's roughest areas, Inchcraig. Once, though, she'd been Alice McInally from Belfast, beautiful and beloved by her childhood sweetheart. But his family was Catholic and hers Protestant, and opposition to their marriage plans meant they must leave Ireland and their well-to-do families. However, their dream for their future founders in war-torn Glasgow, and Alice struggles to make ends meet. To protect the children in her care, she relies on the man Inchcraig knows as 'him', and lives among people far from her background; people she admires and doesn't want to leave. Every day, though, she must live with a lie that could destroy everything - unless she can find the exact time to put it right.
